Your Primary was ‘The Lion’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was at the bottom and had no way to turn. I knew there was a God, and I felt the presence of Jesus telling me to get my life right

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

lay pastor at circle, J cowboy church elder at circle, J cowboy church

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

I have been able to do cowboy church at a lot of events

Having people later on coming to me and telling me that they excepted Christ in their life because of having heard the word at the cowboy church and events

Having a better marriage life

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Had a very close Christian brother that got to me for a lot of money. Tell me a lesson on forgiven

Had a son-in-law that really led us down and went down the wrong road. I have had a hard time forgiving him for what he has done to us

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

  • Putting Your Spouse First
  • Your Kids Second
  • Everyone Else After those

3. To be a good husband and a good grand parents to the kids

4. All of the above

5. To try and take as many of them that I can to heaven with meDenny Denny lemons
